There is a part-time on-site warden paid for as part of the service charge which is currently about £228.57 per month. This also includes maintenance of the leafy communal lawns that surround the development.
The flat is in one of the best locations on the development, and is on the first floor facing the communal gardens to the front and the gardens of the Cambridge Professional Development Centre at the back. It has a sitting room that opens onto a west-facing balcony, a kitchen/breakfast room, a double bedroom, and a bathroom.

It is exceptionally well located for access into the Addenbrooke's campus, out to the M11 and into the city by car, bus, guided bus, bicycle on one of several purpose-built cycle routes, or even an enthusiastic walk. The city's mainline station can be easily reached along the guided busway cycleway without having to mix with car traffic at all.
The area has three primary schools and a brand new state-of-the-art secondary school that opened in 2016 bringing with it excellent sporting facilities including a private members' gym.
There are also various restaurants, pubs, shops, a post office, hairdresser, chemist, Waitrose supermarket and two new country parks.
